PARIS. – French President-Elect Francois Hollande’s victory is more concerning for Ankara, as the leader of the Socialists will be more active on the Armenian Genocide bill. At the same time Hollande differs from former president Sarkozy and shows a more flexible approach on Turkey’s joining the EU, Today’s Zaman reports.

“Insistence to passing the bill on the Armenian Genocide may confound relations between Turkey and France,” Turkey’s Ambassador to France Tahsin Burcuoglu said.
